✅ Where in the Bryansk region you can catch crayfish

Bryansk fisherman caught a giant crayfish

A Bryansk fisherman caught a giant crayfish.
According to him, this is the largest specimen he has ever caught. The green handsome man behaved calmly, occasionally using his huge claws. Cancer is a sign of the purity of the water in the lake where it lived.

According to Oleg, the water resources of the Bryansk region, including crayfish, would be enough for everyone if things were done wisely. For now, everything is turned upside down. The state has taken the path of repression against those who comply with the law and are ready to ensure that there are fish in the ponds and lakes. Even quadcopters began to be used for tracking. Controllers and inspectors draw up reports; reckless fishermen who cannot resist even during spawning are fined and criminal cases are initiated. However, everything should be different, the Bryansk fishermen are convinced: it is not necessary to tighten repression, but to develop self-government and look for allies in passionate people.

– Fishermen know better than inspectors how to maintain a lake or pond, when and how to fish. In some places we are allowed to use fishing rods, spinning rods, and even nets, but in others, don’t go near the pond at all.

Fishermen believe that it is necessary to radically revise the laws and principles relating to fishing. They proceed from common sense: no one will harm themselves by catching all the living creatures in a lake or river. It is necessary to create societies of passionate people who will care primarily about the development of the industry. And there are such people.

Spawning ban in the Samara region 2021

In fact, cancer on Samara shelves comes both from neighboring regions and from local reservoirs. Many fish farms in our region breed this aquaculture themselves. In addition, the delicacy is transported daily in quintals from the border of the Samara and Saratov regions, where the Chagra River flows into the Volga.

There are a lot of crayfish in the Usinsk Bay, in Soka, and of course in the bays of Samara. Local ecologists and fishermen have already lost their tongues, repeating that arthropod hunters conduct their poaching business almost all year round, using prohibited traps connected to each other in dozens and hundreds of pieces.

By checking them once a week, poachers make a good profit by selling their catch indiscriminately at the minimum purchase price. And after that we see how in the markets grandmothers sell tiny, finger-sized crustaceans. As a result, the livestock does not have time to replenish itself.

The same penalty is provided for catching crayfish outside the permitted time limits, provided that they cannot be returned alive to their natural habitat.

There is another rhetorical question, the answer to which seems to suggest itself. Why, after the crayfish fishing ban season is over, do the prices for this product not decrease? Alas, this does not happen, and year after year the Volga delicacy only continues to rise in price.

Today in Samara the average price of a kilogram of live crayfish is 700 rubles. Very small, almost the size of a shrimp, costs about 300-400 rubles per kilo. Large, with a wide tail or claws like a lobster, is valued five times more expensive.

The sellers themselves attribute this to the fact that this year has turned out to be a “lean” year due to high water. However, everything is relative. If you want, in the store you can run into completely nondescript arthropods at an exorbitant price.

New law on fishing in the Bryansk region and in Russia

At the end of 2021, a new fishing law was adopted, which will come into force on January 1, 2021, but some rules will come into force as early as January 1, 2021.

What is the most important thing in the new fishing law:

The daily catch rate per person is 5 kg of fish. In the northern regions, the norm has been increased: in Altai it will be possible to catch up to 10 kg, in Khanty-Mansiysk and Chukotka - up to 30 kg.

The maximum weight of fish (live, dried, fried, etc.) exported from a reservoir cannot exceed 2 daily allowances. What does it mean? This means the following, if you, for example, fish even for a week, that is, 7 days, then you can take home only 10 kg (5 kg, one day + 5 kg for the second day, a total of 2 daily norms of 10 kg). And note that any fish will be considered, live, dead, dried, salted, it doesn’t matter.

If you catch one fish weighing more than 5 kg, you should either take that fish and stop fishing. Or let it go and continue to catch it.

Fish can only be taken longer than the length allowed for catching, and then not in any quantity. For example, you are allowed to take no more than 3 pike perch and 5 pike. If you caught 3 pike perch, for example, 1 kg each, you get 3 kg together. Beyond 2 kg for the daily requirement, you need to catch another type of fish.

No more than 3 pcs. pike per day

No more than 5 pcs. pike per day

You can have any amount of other fish, but no more than 5 kg per day, in general.

Fines for fishing have also increased.

For more information about all innovations, see the federal law.

When is crayfishing allowed?

Fishing and hunting have long been the occupation of many people, who thus obtained food and made a living.

However, today such activities are more of a hobby, which allows you to get a very tasty result. One of the varieties of this hobby is catching crayfish.

Crayfish are a very tasty species of arthropod, and they are especially tasty when cooked.

Most often, boiled arthropods act as a snack for beer. However, in order to please yourself with such a dish, the crayfish should be caught beforehand. Before discussing when it is best to catch crayfish, it should be said that it all depends on the region, somewhere fishing will be successful only at a certain time of the year, but somewhere it can be done all year round.

However, in the latter case, it must still be said that, depending on the region, there are times when crayfish fishing is prohibited.

What kind of fish can you catch in the Bryansk region

Rare fish cannot be caught in the Bryansk region, but there are a large number of familiar species here. Although even ordinary fish in local reservoirs sometimes reaches record sizes. Fishermen will be pleased with this catch:

Map of fishing spots

The main place for fishing in the Bryansk region is the Iput River. Although it is small in size, the fish there are literally splashing with abundance. On a nice day, companies of hunters for trophy specimens gather downstream. It is worth going down the river, because there are a lot of fish there.

Conditions for fishing on the Iput River are excellent. At medium depths there are crucian carp, ide, perch, bream, silver bream and roach. Large specimens are often caught. Catfish is a little less common, as the luckiest ones catch it.

In the Bryansk region there is Lake Bezdonnoe, which in size corresponds to its name. On average, the depth reaches 20 meters, which makes it an ideal reservoir for catching deep-sea fish. Local fishermen catch silver bream, roach, perch and sterlet.

Hunting for perch, which bites well on a spinning rod, is popular. Just take into account the great depth of the reservoir and select suitable baits.

Places for free fishing in the Bryansk region

There are many beautiful lakes in the Bryansk region where you can have a great and useful rest. Such lakes include Kozhanovskoye, where char and whitefish live. Large carp, crucian carp and perch are often caught. You can even dive for crayfish under the water, it’s clean here.

The aforementioned Bottomless Lake is also free. It is easy to find in the Zhukovsky district near the Lavshino station. Most locals know about it, so you won't get lost. Barbel, sterlet, podust and large pike swim in this forest lake. The feeder is good for catching bream, rudd and roach.

If you want to admire nature, then go to Lake Bechino. The fish here is smaller than in other lakes, but there is a lot of it. Sometimes you can catch large pike and perch. People come here specifically to catch predatory fish.

An excellent catch is obtained on Lake Svyatoe. Fishermen are taking home large quantities of perch, bream and roach. To catch them, no special equipment is required; a feeder is enough. And if you have a boat, it will be a big advantage.

What kind of fish is found in the Bryansk region

Bryansk and the region are not famous for a large number of rare fish, but there are more than enough common species here. Moreover, the majority of the specimens are trophy and quite large, this fact pleases local fishermen. Most often you can catch:

This is not a complete list of all the fish that are found in the region’s water bodies. The list includes only those species that almost everyone can catch in all bodies of water. If you choose the right place for fishing, you will also succeed and you will be able to show off your rich catch among your colleagues and friends.

Map of fishing spots

The Iput River flows through almost the entire territory of the Bryansk region. The pond is medium in size, and there is enough fish there. The best places for fishing are located downstream of the river, where you can often meet fishermen.

A deep reservoir with medium depths is considered one of the best for fishing. And indeed, the conditions here are quite good. There are a lot of crucian carp, perch, ide, silver bream, bream and roach in the river, and the fish are quite large. Particularly lucky fishermen often have the chance to catch catfish.

Local fishermen very often catch ide on the river. The usual float rods are used as gear.

A huge lake with an area of 22 hectares, called Bottomless, got its name for a reason. The average depth of the lake is 20 meters, which makes it promising for catching deep-sea inhabitants. The main objects of fishing for local fishermen are silver bream, perch and roach. It is often possible to catch a sterlet.

Local fans of spinning fishing prefer perch fishing. Large striped individuals often stand at a depth of about 6 meters.

The technique and tactics of fishing for perch in the reservoirs of the Bryansk region are no different from other reservoirs. The main thing is to take into account the great depth of the lake and choose the appropriate weight of baits, as well as pay attention to the lack of current.

Where can you catch crayfish?

All crustaceans are found exclusively in reservoirs. lakes, pits and rivers, the water of which can be called clean. the fact is that such animals simply cannot live in muddy water, since this not only complicates the process of finding food, but also has a detrimental effect on them. If the water in a river or lake is very dirty and cloudy or does not contain enough oxygen, then looking for crayfish in it is useless.

It is better to catch crayfish in reservoirs where the water stagnates. These animals can live at different depths. Sometimes you can successfully set traps at a depth of thirty or forty centimeters, but in others the crustaceans are found at an impressive depth of two or three meters.

Crayfish prefer a rocky bottom, because in this case they do not have problems organizing their shelters. Crayfish are also found in places with a clay bottom. It is easy to dig a hole in clay, the length of which can reach a meter. Although it must be said that arthropods settle in such places relatively rarely.
